DID Garrett Adelstein GET CHEATED for A $270,000 pot??!?!?

The craziest poker hand in History happens on Hustler Casino Live stream
On the date of September 30th 2022 I am not accusing anyone of cheating or breaking the law.

And for now on when someone missreads a hand and loses, Garrett then gives that money back. Then this Garrett`s logic makes sense. There is no poker player who has never ever missred a hand, it has happened even to Ivey so this Garrett`s whining is totally unforgivable. His reputation goes down to toilet in one sigle hand.

[@user-hr2zy7ct8h]

@@notro7672 You're being sarcastic but that's actually the case. When she sais "I put you on Ace high", the way Garrett answers "Why did you call with Jack high then?" obviously implies she made a mistake. In her mind he's talking about the small bet on the flop, that's when she calls with Jack high. Now he gets even more aggravated, understandably so because what she sais doesn't make sense to anyone who looked at the cards. He asks "So you called all-in on the turn because....?", and she is upset with this question because she just explained it to him, she hit a bottom pair on the turn so why not call against Ace high? Now clearly upset she responds "yeah... because you didn't have sht", as in "it was a perfect read, why do you look like you saw a ghost and why are you complaining and asking the same question twice". I cannot blame Garrett at all for responding this way to a Jack high 3-bet all-in call especially considering the conversation. But playing the hand back and just imagining her hand is J3, which she had the previous hand, it all adds up. Now it's a giant misunderstanding, credit to the commentators for already guessing she misread it, don't blame them for thinking it's impossible because she stares at those cards but from what she sais and the decisions she makes it's clear. The thing that really set up this disaster is the table talk I think. They say "that was sick!" when the cards are revealed. Everyone is so speechless, that nobody repeats exactly what happened. Everyone is talking about the action, nobody points out directly how she won with Jack high because everyone seems to have to digest that. The reaction of the table is one of the most confusing reactions ever in itself. She's pumped with adrenaline just won a big hand expecting everyone to cheer for her, I'm wondering if she only realized what hse had done when Garrett tried to figure out wtf happened or if she realized earlier already and was embarassed so she kept it to herself.

I think the weirdest part was her reaction to winning. Imagine calling a 109k allin on the turn running it twice and winning both with Jack high. Wouldn't most people be celebrating a little after bricking in your mind only to see J High is good? She seemed to know she was good before the cards were turned over and her only worry was to make sure Garrett was OK. Also odd she misspeaks and says Jacob instead of Garrett. She had a lot of wordsalad that came across very nervous. Obviously no proof right now just very weird.

[@adrianamatlack532]

Great observations. This is what I wrote, wondering if you might agree "She kept checking her hole cards before she called, so hard to understand how she could think she had bottom pair. The J high call would almost certainly have to be cheating. You got to wonder if she really is that out of it. Doug Polk said she seems to be lol. But she has played a lot the last 10 years, and the fact that she gave her hole cards a good look over before she called, how could she think she had bottom pair? Then she said she called with J high cause the though he had A high. She is either the most unqualified person on earth to play poker, totally spaced out, or cheating lol. Who knows, I was certain she cheated, but it's just so strange, and people can act so unpredictable when questioned and accused, not really sure what to think anymore, but very very very suspicious, and should be looked into, perhaps the FBI should interview her."

The using of the time chips is what really is giving the "maybe she had a friend watching the stream and to text when she is in hands and has the best or is winning" type scenario. Combine that with literally the only hand she could put Garrett on that she is beating, is exactly 78 off clubs, but the fact that she herself, NEVER utters that or begins to say something like yeah i thought that is what you had, thats what I put you on etc she kinda just mutters about the blockers and the odd Ace high, which beats her read, and other nonsense as she didn't have time to justify her call without giving away dead that she had some extra inside info. This is like a murder case where if you look at all the pieces individually, its not really suspicious or proof of guilt. But when you add all of them up and look at the big picture, it just does not make sense that she would make this call without knowing exactly what garrett was holding or be smart enough to defend your action by declaring the hand you think Garrett has. If you are that good at soul reading, why not proudly when J4 wins the hand say, yeah that is what I put you on rather than sit there looking like someone who didn't think far enough ahead to how you would answer the questions of why you called an all in for piles with Jack high and no draw. Any winning poker player knows something was up this hand and the likely scenario was her getting some kind of alert that her hand was ahead when Garrett shoved all in on the turn. Easy to program your phone to vibrate in a certain pattern when a certain person IE the person watching the live stream, sends a text message when you are facing a big bet or all in call. You would be naïve to think some of the degenerates who play poker at 2/5 won't cheat to get an edge, let alone the people playing for hundreds of thousands and with this sort of technology, its not the most difficult to cheat. Garrett had a right to think something was off.

[@jamesbroomfield7799]

Even if she knew his hand at that point, Garrett still has half the deck to bail him out and she agreed to run it twice so Garrett has two chances with half the deck I'm his favor. Unless she knew the order of the deck, as in, knew the full run out even with running it twice, then I'd say she just made a stubborn crying call hoping he had low clubs like he did

[@wsvitak]

I agree, she would need to know what was coming to make a call like that and that’s unlikely. She made a foolish call and it worked.

[@maheshpun4804]

If she folds, Garrett wins $161k If she calls, Garrett has 53% of $270k or an equity of $143k If she was cheating she would've stolen $19,000 worth of equity. In poker most hand except like AA, KK, QQ make money from getting some percentage of folds when you are behind, even AK makes more money by making ppl fold than value betting. So her not folding a must fold hand costs Garrett. Obviously this is a terrible spot to cheat, there's much better spots where you steal more money and remain hidden from suspicion. But most cheaters are greedy they take every little edge they can, or the smart ones remain free of suspicion.

[@rsg--ns3uf]

Personally I think her behaviour is very suspicious. As you said this isnt a big pot to Garrett. He didn’t even lose a quarter of his stack. He has been a consummate professional when previously lost big pots and been slow rolled. Would 100 percent believe his version of events. Also if you check the footage she re checked her hand before she called. No way you misread your hand pre flop then check and misread again and make that hero call especially in a game 10x what you normally play.

Yep, 100%. AFter you rewatch it a few times, you find that her story crumbes too. SHe says she thought that Garrett only had Ace high, and says her J of cubs provided blockers. SO why would you call an all in when you're quite far behind against ace high? Her hand, in of itself at this point only really has good value if Garrett has 3-5 unsuited. SO really, at best she is hoping for a very marginal spot. At worst she's already drawing dead. SHe cheated. And you can see Garrett's eyes narrow immediately afterwards.

1. Staying true to your style of play is what gets you through the ups and downs of poker. 2. Patiently wait for tables that play to your strengths. (If you are tight find those loose tables.. etc. Etc.) 3. If you are not getting good vibes walk away. 4. If you can't spot the players you want to exploit in the first 20 minutes you can plan on being exploited. 5. Don't play outside of your means. Bankroll management is key to work through fluctuations. 6. Your poker bankroll should be separate from your bank account. If you start dipping into your utility bill money to fund poker you have a problem. 7. Bad beats.. part of life.. part of poker. Chin up and judge yourself by your play and getting in with the best of it and not by the runner runner someone pulled out of their ass to clean you out. 8. Always walk away after a bad beat. 5 min. 5 days. Whatever. Just walk away and give yourself time. Tilt is always realized retroactively. 9. Have fun. Poker is fun. Enjoy the ride.

I’ve been in a hand like this and if the board is low and your opponent overbet shoves, he’s either got the nuts or a semi bluff with a draw. The most obvious draw is a straight. He probably doesn’t do this with Q, K, A or Pair plus because those have some showdown value. He’s is polarizing his hand. If he bets smaller, she folds. That sizing screams bluff with no showdown value or nuts and his behavior screamed bluff so she did nothing wrong. People are overreacting because of the dollar amount. If it was 1k at 5/10, people wouldn’t care but it’s a very smart play.

it's not just what she said.. it's the totality of the situation. there are some incredibly accurate body-language clusters that indicate she knew exactly how bad the situation looked, from an omnipotent/omnipresent perspective -- meaning, she understood the entire scope of the hand, and then pre-emptively tried to mitigate the blowback she knew was incoming EVEN BEFORE SHE SAID CALL. examples of this: (a) dupers delight / her grinning a short time before she says call, (b) her asking him if he wanted her to call (to shift responsibility onto him, instead of her). It was only when she realized that all of this wasn't going to be worth the 120k she took from him that she decided to ret-con some made up story that she thought she had a 3 (she literally stares at her hand for 20 seconds when the action was on her, after he shoved). in body-language analysis, it's never one thing that leaves a smoking gun. it's the odds that multiple things put together occur at the same time leading you to know whether someone is being deceptive or not. in that moment, she had no reason to appear deceptive because if she were truly conflicted about the call, all the smirking and dupers delight wouldn't have occurred.

[@EfficientRVer]

There is much more to this than meets the eye. I can't wait to see what "revelations" come out on Friday as promised by Nick (though he said they would not come from him/HCL), and how the whole thing shakes out. 1. It would be the most stupid spot ever, to try to cheat. Too obvious, and too lacking an edge. Garrett had an open ended straight flush draw plus two live cards. It was a coin flip. You don't cheat to "get the money in ahead" when your opponent has 21 outs (or even 19 with 2 of them in her hand). 2. If she knew the river card, or just knew "Texas style" who was going to win from the shuffler, she sure wouldn't have asked to run it twice. Are people REALLY accusing her of knowing her hand would win BOTH rivers? Would she want to DOUBLE the chance of the dealer screwing up a burn card or something? No way. 3. If she knew the river card or who was going to win a runout, then both the casino and the production team are at fault for dealing a crooked/insecure game. 4. The hand prior to this, she had J3, this hand she had J4. Have you ever remembered your cards from the previous hand instead of the current hand? I have. I bet every street thinking I had TPTK, when all I really had was the nut nothing. It was at limit holdem, where firing every barrel isn't always effective! 5. When she "was looking at her cards for 15 seconds" they didn't seem to be separated much, or raised much from the table. It's entirely possible that she just likes holding her cards that way, or was just staring at the Jack of Clubs, rather than checking that her kicker really was a 3. The brain also tends to see what it's expecting to see. 6. When she was talking after the turn card, while considering calling the shove, it really seemed like she thought she had a 3 which the turn paired, or was at least representing that she had a 3. The paired 3 fits the desciption of a pretty bad hand, but still a bluff catcher. Jack high, much less so. 7. When the first river card counterfeited the paired 3, her talking implied that she'd been counterfeited, or at least wasn't very hopeful about her chances. We all know the feeling of going from being ahead of an ace, to being behind an ace. Or in this case, suddenly behind an ace, king, or queen. 8. She claimed that she didn't have a "small pair" when Garrett asked. She could have interpreted the question to mean "small (pocket) pair". And it's OK to lie during a hand! 9. I find it completely normal to get confused about what I said during a hand, after a hand. Admittedly, I'm 65 and she's not, but it's easy to get flustered/defensive when embroiled in a controversy, especially in a hand you made big mistakes in, whether those mistakes are bet sizing, misreading cards, talking when you should have shut up, getting someone's stack size wrong, calculating outs wrong, calculating pot odds wrong, or anything else. Regardless of whether Garrett thought he was cheated, his beef should have been with HCL, not with her. Once a pot is pushed to someone, it is theirs, and your beef becomes a beef with the casino. VERY unprofessional of him to take the money back from her away from the table, even if she was offering that. We've all given or at least seen little "refunds" AT THE TABLE, with the permission of the floor, in odd circumstances. Maybe an uninvolved player's card fouls/mucks an opponent's hand, or a chop wasn't spotted until after a pot was pushed, or an 80 year old fish misread the suit of a card at the other end of the table, etc. But moving chips between players away from the table, with or without accusations of cheating, simply should not be done, and I blame Garrett for accepting it, more than I blame her for offering it.

[@B0TT0MGUN]

I once called a loose player with 10 6suited because I was so curious to make his previous action make sense to me and learn how he plays. It was a limit game and not an all-in call. He had 10 8off and took down the pot anyway with his kicker, was embarrassing to have to explain why I called when the other players all asked how I didn’t win but it really came down to just that, curiosity. Besides, I mostly thought I was beat by at least a pair and wouldn’t have to show my hand. This drama that got started, then kept increasing, is unfortunate for both players because neither of their reputations will go unquestioned from now on in the comments of all the reaction videos of this hand. It’s going to be remembered for its novelty of a drama afterwards as well as just a bizarre call. As for ethical behavior, I think it’s gonna suck to be Garrett cause he’ll not hear the end of this for a long time. Ya, this all was just a bizarre session.

When she rolled her hand I feel like she felt like the table was going to explode and everyone was going to be like “ohhhhh shiiiiit!!!” but it was just a little awkward as everyone tried to process what the hell just happened. Garrett’s all in is great because he will get folds from better hands (small pairs, even over pairs, better flush draws). He has an open ended straight flush draw. Even if he gets called by a 10 (which will happen sometimes) he still has a ton of outs. That all in folds out better hands than J4o lol. I think it was great shove and a dumb call. Garrett does that for value with hands like A10 to cooler worse 10s. She 100% did NOT misread her hand because she checked her hand like 15 seconds before she called. She also said when she asked Garrett what would make him feel better about it, he said to split it. She just gave it all back to him.

sorry, but her saying she had a bluff catcher only puts more blood on her hands, not less. the dupers delight/deceptive grin before she even called shows that she knows it's going to look bad when everyone sees her hand. note her pre-emptively mitigating the blowback by defending her call before she makes it because she knows the blowback is going to be strong the moment she turns her hand face up. that's also the reason it takes her so long to actually turn them up. she knew her hand was good, and she was slightly ashamed to have done what she did. when people make legitimate extremely strong calls on others who are bluffing, they are proud to turn it up and show everyone they knew the person was bluffing. she couldn't pass up the opportunity, but could sense the outrage that was coming.. her giving the money back (when has anyone ever done this willingly?) supports this and only makes it worse for her.

[@trueneutral3092]

also, her hand isn't what most would consider a bluff catcher. typically, the minimum strength hand referred to a bluff catcher would be at least K/A high. that his hand was one of the ONLY hands that her hand was a bluff catcher against paints her into a corner for having said "but i have a bluff catcher" rather than getting her out of it.

There is a lot more info coming out indicating cheating along with her partner RIP. Stay tuned

I find it weird that in an environment that Garrett has said he totally trust and on a live stream that has cameras EVERYWHERE that someone has to explain their hand. Poker is played in such a way now that anything out of line people get all funny with.

[@aark89]

its not that "poker is played in such a way" If you understand the fine nuances of the game, this is one of those impossible to call hands. There's no amount of hero calling that can be attributed to the call to make it make sense. You are literally losing to bluffs. There are like 3 different combos of bluffs that she beats, and like another dozen bluffs he has that she loses to. Not to mention all the made hands that have her drawing dead. If you understand poker at the level thats being discussed here, you will know there is nothing about this that is garret being a bitch, and everything to do with the fact that this can't have been done if it wasn't either cheating, or misread. Even if u attribute the call to misreading, her past lines shes taken in these situations have shown that she doesn't make these hero calls. It is an extreme deviation from how she normally plays, and when things deviate that much from the norm, well where there's smoke, there's usually a fire.

@@aark89 I get that. BUT the game is now in such a place that IF you do make a LEGAL call however daft, you are then scrutinised and called a cheat. I’m not saying she was right or wrong or cheated or didn’t , it’s just the game is in a place where you can’thust do that. Say it was a billionaire that just fancied making that call, that would be under the microscope when he might just of fancied it. Also Garrett was in the mind set of “jam all in and she will HAVE to fold” that’s weird for me, it’s like jamming all in automatically means victory for him. It’s a very weird situation highlighted by the fact the game is at such a level where some things within the rules actually aren’t allowed

[@aark89]

@@louisstone7525 Mmm, thats the thing where i mentioned nuances right, both within the game and her explanations afterward. If this hypothetical billionaire calls and says "ha, i have fuck you money, i just wanted to see your cards," thats totally legit. However, some of her reasoning were (and everything i will list here is from the stream), "i put you on ace high". How the fuck do you put someone on ace high and call with jack high? Wtf? Garret says "do you have a small pair" and she says "ha, you give me that much credit? no, i have a pure buff catcher" which means she doesn't have a 3 as she said several times AFTER this blew up. You can also clearly see her pick up her hand and look at her cards for about 13 seconds directly prior to her making the call. She's literally staring at the cards, how do you "misread" the hand? Her rationale of "I have the jack of clubs which is a blocker" is also incorrect. If you are bluff catching, you want them to have the jack of club because it is one of the best combo draw cards to have. By having that card yourself, you remove so many combos of semi-bluffs that he can be holding, making it MORE likely that he has a made hand. If you understand that, then you understand that her saying she has blockers means she doesn't know shit about what she's saying and shes desperately word vomitting to make excuses. And once again, if you go google garret's twitter and see his post about what happened, it seems very much so that she suddenly got scared she was caught cheating and decided to return the money. Yes, i realize that this is a he said she said situation since she said that he made her return the money, but, all the evidence we have points to her being extremely suspicious. Nothing about this hand is as you said, the game not allowing for some unconventional plays to be made, but has everything to do with the fact that she presented herself and her information in a extremely contradictory, and suspicious manner.

guess you haven't heard of mike postle. He cheated a ton of people with cameras everytwhere.

[@lioneltholmer4584]

After watching this afew times I can understand why he feels it's highly suspicious. But he still handled that situation horribly.You can't make accusations about someone like that with zero hard evidence.

[@RealJesseONFIRE]

Robbi called thinking she had a pair of 3s…but she still knew he had nothing. No cheating. He got cracked

[@FurrBurgers]

She didn’t cheat you guys, shes clearly just a huge WHALE, when asked why she called, she said I had blockers LMAO, but she blocks bluffs, but probably heard somewhere it’s good to call when you have blockers, and also she had a strong feeling Gareth was bluffing

[@youbluethatone1017]

Unless She knows Garrett’s Cards somehow and knows that Jack blocks Some of Garrett’s outs!

I want to hear what Phil Ivey has to say about this entire sequence 🤓

[@Chris-pe9lj]

Phil said he thought the hand was legit.

he'll say she didnt cheat because someone else gave her the information about garretts hand.

[@PoppysGuitar]

She didn't misread the 3. She made that up after the fact. She looked at her hand prior to the call for 20 seconds and then she denied having a 3 not once but twice before she showed her hand.
